“Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe” – Abraham Lincoln

Likewise, any web developer needs to be aware of the tools which aids in faster and better web development. In this article, I wish to introduce few tools which I found to be immensely helpful for any budding web developer to have it in their arsenal.

Editors :- To start with, a developer needs an editor, a tool in which development happens and where the developer spends most part of the time. So, it is only wise that developers choose the right editor. Although, it takes time to get comfortable using any editor, it is worth the effort to try out different editors and choose one which is helpful the most. The choices vary from developers to developers and it is best left to the individual to make a choice.

I started with Notepad++ but eventually found Sublime Text to be the one suitable for me. These two seems to be the most popular choices, but I have seen my friends use other alternatives such as Eclipse and Aptana, which are popular too.
